Congratulations to Connie Bacon on Her Retirement!
We are so happy for Connie as she embarks on her next chapter, spending quality time with her daughter Shannon, hitting the gym, supporting her church, and embracing her official roles of dog walking and kitty supervision.
Connie began her journey with Peggy Pickler State Farm on February 10th, 2003, as a licensed account representative. Over the past five years, she has worked part-time—a great arrangement that has benefited both her and the office. We are truly thankful for these extra years of her dedication and service.
Connie will be retiring on May 29th, 2026. Please stop by the office on the 29th to share your congratulations and well wishes. We will be holding an open house all day in her honor, with treats provided!
Working in a small office, we’ve had the privilege of really getting to know one another. We’ve supported each other through sickness and loss, as well as celebrated health and good times. For a few years, we even had the joy of working alongside Shannon and Connie together.
Connie has shared that what she loved most about this job were the people and the connections. In her earlier years, there were many more face-to-face interactions, and she cherished getting to know customers personally while making policy changes and discussing ways to protect their families. Some of her favorite moments include celebrating milestones with families, like kids getting their driver’s licenses or graduating. It’s been wonderful to share in that joy and growth, guiding customers safely through life’s transitions. Even more special is seeing those “kids” return as adults, starting their own businesses and careers.
Working closely with people, Connie has always offered understanding without judgment—just a genuine desire to help and educate. Being able to support and connect with customers has truly been a great joy for her.
Please join us in celebrating Connie’s remarkable career and wishing her all the best in her well-deserved retirement!
